Q

Describe the dentine bonding process.

A
  • acid etch applied (35% phosphoric acid), opens tubules by removing smear layer, leaving collagen network, increased wettability
  • prime and bond applied, primers hydrophilic end binds to the hydrophilic dentine tubules, the hydrophobic methacrylate binds to the hydrophobic adhesive

Q

What are the principles of caries removal?

A
  1. Identify and removal carious enamel.
  2. Remove enamel to identify the extent of caries and the ADJ.
  3. Progressively remove caries in dentine, from ADJ and circumferentially deeper.
  4. Remove deep caries over the pulp.
  5. Modify cavity design, smooth edges, prepare for chosen filling material (ie retentive form = amalgam).
  6. Smoothing of internal line and point angles.
  7. Smoothing of the Cavo-surafce margins.

Q

What are the fit for use checks?

A
  • bur rotates freely
  • apply lateral tension to the bur
  • run device for >5s to ensure regular high pitch noise and bur rotates on its own axis
21
Q

What are the components of composite resin?

A
  • filler particles
  • resin
  • camphorquinone (photointiator)
  • low weight dimethacrylates

26
Q

What is DOC?

A
  • depth of cure
  • typically 2mm
  • the depth at which the material is at 80% of the hardness of the surface
27
Q

How is polymerisation contraction shrinkage avoided in cavities?

A
  • two opposing surfaces should not be connected by a layer of composite
  • build in triangular increments
28

Q

Describe the technique used for taking an impression.

A
  • size check the tray
  • retract cheek
  • rotate tray from 90 degrees into the mouth
  • retract lip and line up the midline with the handle
  • seat the tray at the posterior and then the anterior
  • arrange the buccal and labial tissues to ensure proper impression of sulcus

Maxillary stand behind
Mandibular stand in-front

31

  • acid-base reaction as in GIC (over 24 hours)
36
Q

What problems does light curing pose?

A

Safety risk

  • exothermic reaction (could be damaging to the pulp)
  • thermal trauma to patient soft tissues if optic rod not placed correctly
  • ocular damage to operator (omitted by use of safety shields or glasses)

Setting
